> You never went on-call or seen a friend do it?

Red herring [1].

OP said it’s malicious or incompetent to release this on a U.S. holiday weekend. You asked if similar consideration would be given to Brazil. Multiple people chimed in that it would. You’re now pivoting to on-call capacity.

Any amount of on-call capacity can be saturated. That’s why competent multinationals avoid releasing while markets they’re likely to impact are sleeping or drunk. This is a high-level scheduling operation, however, so it’s reasonable for those lower in the organisation to be unaware why an update is being pushed next Tuesday instead of this.

You can totally ignore the red herring and focus on the first part. In the end I was just paraphrasing the comment I replied to.

Rotations exist, specially in large organizations, or when there's shared responsibility.

Now we're talking nonsense about "you said, he said", this conversation makes no sense. I am much less invested in this than you think.

> Rotations exist

Straw man [1]. Nobody claimed otherwise.

Rotation or always-on isn’t a substitute for being aware of your customers. Good culture permeate this throughout the organisation. Competent ones have someone at the top ensuring controls are followed.

Sorry, I lost the track.

Can you explain the point you made precisely, in the context of the original subject?
